SALT RIVER PROJECT

SRP is the third-largest public power utility in the US, serving more than 1 million customers in the greater Phoenix metropolitan area.

PREPAYMENT PIONEER

In the 1990s, SRP launched a highly successful prepayment program to help its customers save both money and energy. The award-winning program quickly grew into the country’s largest prepayment program. In order to keep pace with changes in the industry, such as increasing distributed resources and the integration of renewables, and to provide customers new services and more options for energy management, SRP was seeking a solution for modernizing its prepayment infrastructure.

LANDIS+GYR SOLUTION: FOCUS ON CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE

Landis+Gyr’s smart prepayment solution utilizes the Advanced Metering, two-way communication platform as the backbone. Smart Meters that contain edge computing capability and applications provide the logic and communication needed to support the prepayment program. An in-home display terminal offers real-time access to usage, source and cost of power as well as account balance.

Thanks to the multi-purpose connected communication platform, SRP can provide its customers with a growing list of services, such as outage and restoration e-notifications, and flexible billing options that help retail customers save money and match household budget, lifestyle and energy use needs. In addition, SRP is offering a load control program that includes programmable communicating thermostats and load control switches. Some program participants are also using a demand manager application developed by Landis+Gyr that can automate Load Management actions for customers on demand rates. SRP continues to lead with innovative energy management options for its consumers.
